4 Gideon ha pawk van neh Jordan te pahoi kat tih a taengkah hlang ya thum neh buhmueh rhathih la a hloem uh.
Gideon ne ne mmarima ahasa no twaa Asubɔnten Yordan, ɛwom sɛ na wɔabrɛ deɛ, nanso wɔtoaa so taa atamfoɔ no.
5 Te dongah Sukkoth hlang rhoek taengah, “Ka kho kung kah pilnam ham he buh hluem khaw m'paek pah laem, Midian manghai Zebah neh Zalmunna hnuk ka hloem ah amih khaw kamah khaw buhmueh rhathih lam ni ka om uh,” a ti nah.
Wɔduruu Sukot no, Gideon ka kyerɛɛ ntuanofoɔ a wɔwɔ hɔ no sɛ, “Momma mʼakofoɔ no aduane nni na wɔabrɛ. Meretaa Midian ahemfo Seba ne Salmuna.”
6 Tedae Sukkoth mangpa rhoek loh na caempuei te buh ka paek uh ham khaw Zebah neh Zalmunna kut te na kut dongah om oepsoeh pawn a?” a ti nah.
Na Sukot ntuanofoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Kyere Seba ne Salmuna ansa na yɛama wʼakofoɔ no aduane adi.”
7 Te dongah Gideon loh, “Zebah neh Zalmunna te BOEIPA loh ka kut dongla han tloeng vaengah na saa te khosoek kah a hling neh, mutlohling neh kam baih bitni,” a ti nah.
Gideon buaa sɛ, “Sɛ Awurade ma medi Seba ne Salmuna so nkonim a, mɛsane aba de ɛserɛ so nkasɛɛ ne akraateɛ abɛsunsuane mo honam ani.”
8 Te lamkah te Penuel la cet tih koep a thui bal dae anih te Sukkoth hlang rhoek kah a doo bangla Penuel hlang rhoek long khaw a doo uh.
Na Gideon firii hɔ kɔɔ Penuel kɔsrɛɛ aduane bio, na ɔnyaa mmuaeɛ korɔ no ara.
9 Te dongah Penuel hlang rhoek te khaw a voek tih, “Sading la ka mael vaengah rhaltoengim he kam phil bitni,” a ti nah.
Na ɔka kyerɛɛ Penuelfoɔ no sɛ, “Sɛ mefiri nkonimdie mu ba a, mɛbubu saa abantenten yi.”
10 Te vaengah Zebah neh Zalmunna tah Karkor ah khothoeng ca caem boeih khui lamkah aka sueng boeih thawng hlai nga tluk loh amih rhoi taengah lambong la a om puei. Te vaengah cunghang aka pom hlang thawng ya pakul loh cungku uh.

11 Gideon khaw, Nobah neh Jobehah khothoeng kah dap ah aka om rhoek longpuei ah cet tih lambong lambong te a tloek daengah ngaikhuek la om pueng.
Gideon faa atutenafoɔ ɛkwan a ɛda Noba ne Yogbeha apueeɛ fam no ho hyiaeɛ, na wɔto hyɛɛ Midian akodɔm a na wɔn ani nna wɔn ho soɔ no so.
12 Zebah neh Zalmunna te rhaelrham rhoi van dae a hnukah a hloem. Midian manghai rhoi Zebah neh Zalmunna te a tuuk van nen tah lambong boeih te a lakueng sak.
Midian ahemfo baanu a wɔn din de Seba ne Salmuna no dwaneeɛ, nanso Gideon taa wɔn faa wɔn akofoɔ nyinaa nnommum.
13 Joash capa Gideon khaw caemtloek lamkah lamkah te Heres kham longah ha mael.
Yei akyi no, Yoas ba Gideon faa Heres kwantempɔn so saneeɛ.
14 Te vaengah Sukkoth hlang rhoek khui lamkah camoe te a tuuk tih a dawt. Anih ham Sukkoth mangpa rhoek neh hamca rhoek hlang sawmrhih parhih ming te boeih a daek.
Ɛhɔ na ɔkyeree aberanteɛ bi a ɔfiri Sukot. Ɔhyɛɛ no sɛ ɔntwerɛ nnipa aduɔson nson a wɔyɛ sodifoɔ ne ntuanofoɔ a wɔwɔ kuro no mu no din mma no.
15 Te phoeiah Sukkoth hlang rhoek te a paan tih, “Zebah neh Zalmunna la he, kai nan hnael uh tih, 'Buh aka lamlum na hlang rhoek te ka paek uh ham khaw, na kut ah Zebah neh Zalmunna kut loh om pawn a,’ na ti uh te,” a ti nah.
Afei, Gideon sane kɔɔ Sukot kɔka kyerɛɛ ɛhɔ ntuanofoɔ no sɛ, “Seba ne Salmuna nie. Yɛbaa ha no modii me ho fɛ, kaa sɛ, ‘Kyere Seba ne Salmuna ansa na yɛama wʼakofoɔ a wɔabrɛ no aduane adi.’”
16 Te phoeiah khopuei kah a hamca rhoek neh Sukkoth hlang rhoek te a loh tih khosoek kah a hling, mutlohling neh a toel.
Afei Gideon faa kuro no mu ntuanofoɔ kyerɛɛ wɔn nyansa. Ɔde ɛserɛ so nkasɛɛ ne akraateɛ twee wɔn aso.
17 Penuel rhaltoengim te khaw a phil tih khopuei hlang rhoek te khaw a ngawn.
Ɔsane dwirii Penuel abantenten no guu fam, kunkumm kuro no mu mmarima nyinaa.
18 Te phoeiah Zebah neh Zalmunna te, “Tabor ah na ngawn uh te mebang hlang rhoek lae,” a ti nah hantah, “Namah bangla om tih amih te manghai capa kah a suisak bangla rhip om uh,” a ti rhoi.
Afei, ɔbisaa Seba ne Salmuna sɛ, “Mmarima a mokumm wɔn wɔ Tabor no, na wɔte sɛn?” Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Mmarima no te sɛ wo. Na wɔn mu biara te sɛ ɔheneba.”
19 Te vaengah ka mana rhoi aw BOEIPA kah hingnah dongah amih te ka manu ca rhoek ni, amih te na hing sak koinih nangmih he kang ngawn pawt sue,” a ti nah.
Gideon ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Na wɔyɛ me nuanom. Sɛ Awurade te ase yi, sɛ moankum wɔn a, anka me nso merenkum mo.”
20 Te phoeiah a caming Jether te, “Thoo lamtah amih rhoi he ngawn,” a ti nah. Tedae a camoe pueng dongah a rhih tih a cunghang te camoe loh rhawp bong pawh.
Ɔdanee nʼani kyerɛɛ ne babarima panin Yeter sɛ, “Ku wɔn.” Nanso Yeter antwe nʼakofena, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔyɛ abarimaa enti na ɔsuro.
21 Zebah neh Zalmunna long khaw, “Namah te thoo lamtah kaimih rhoi he n'cuuk thil,” a ti nah. A thayung thamal loh hlang la a poeh sak van dongah Gideon khaw thoo tih Zebah neh Zalmunna te a ngawn. A kalauk rhawn dongkah oi te khaw a loh pah.
Seba ne Salmuna ka kyerɛɛ Gideon sɛ, “Mma abarimaa nyɛ ɔpanin adwuma! Wo ankasa yɛ!” Enti, Gideon kumm wɔn baanu, faa adehyeɛ agudeɛ a ɛsensɛn wɔn yoma kɔn mu no.
22 Te vaengah Gideon te Israel hlang rhoek loh, “Kaimih he Midian kut lamkah nan khang coeng dongah namah neh na ca long khaw, na ca kah a ca khaw kaimih soah ngol pawn saeh,” a ti uh.
Na Israelfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ Gideon sɛ, “Di yɛn so ɔhene. Wo ne wo babarima ne wo nana bɛyɛ yɛn ahemfo, ɛfiri sɛ, woagye yɛn afiri Midianfoɔ nsam.”
23 Tedae amih taengah Gideon loh, “Nangmih soah kai ka ngol mahpawh, ka ca khaw nangmih soah ngol boel saeh, BOEIPA te nangmih soah ngol bitni,” a ti nah.
Nanso, Gideon buaa sɛ, “Merenni mo so ɔhene na me babarima nso renni mo so ɔhene. Awurade na ɔbɛdi mo so.”
24 Te vaengkah amih Ishmael rhoek kah hnaii te tah sui kak la a om dongah Israel rhoek te Gideon loh, “Hlang boeih loh a kutbuem la a khueh hnaii te kai taengah nan paek ham te ni nangmih taengah huithuinah neh kam bih,” a ti nah.
Mmom Gideon ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, mewɔ adebisa baako. “Mo mu biara mma me asomuadeɛ baako a mofa firii asadeɛ a monya firii mo atamfoɔ a modii wɔn so no nkyɛn.” (Atamfoɔ a na wɔyɛ Ismaelfoɔ no na obiara hyɛ sikakɔkɔɔ asomuadeɛ).
25 Tedae, “Pae rhoe pae sih,” a ti uh dongah himbai te a phaih uh tih hlang boeih loh a kutbuem hnaii pahoi a voeih uh.
Wɔbuaa sɛ, “Yɛpene so dodo.” Wɔde akatasoɔ sɛɛ fam. Na obiara de ne sikakɔkɔɔ asomuadeɛ a ɔnyaeɛ bɛguu so.
26 Te vaengkah sui hnaii a bih te sui kak khiing la thawngkhat ya rhih om. Te lamloh Midian manghai pum dongkah kah oihnun, hnapha, daidi himbai khaw, te lamloh kalauk rhawn dongkah oi khaw om pueng.
Na sikakɔkɔɔ asomuadeɛ dodoɔ a wɔnyaeɛ no karii kilogram aduonu a asrane nketewa ne kɔnmuadeɛ, Midian ahemfo adehyeɛ ahyehyɛdeɛ ne nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a ɛgu wɔn yoma kɔn mu nka ho.
27 Te te Gideon loh hnisui la a saii tih Ophrah kah amah kho ah a khueh hatah a taengah Israel boeih loh cukhalh uh. Te dongah Gideon ham neh a imkhui ham tah hlaeh la a om pah.
Gideon de yɛɛ asɔfotadeɛ kronkron na ɔde sii kuro Ofra, ne kurom, mu. Nanso, ankyɛre na Israelfoɔ no kɔsom no de guu wɔn ho fi na ɛdanee afidie maa Gideon ne ne fiefoɔ.
28 Midian he Israel ca rhoek kah mikhmuh ah kunyun coeng tih a lu khaw dangrhoek ham khaw khoep uh voelpawh. Te dongah Gideon tue, kum likip khuiah tah khohmuen khaw mong.
Yei ne abasɛm a ɛkyerɛ sɛdeɛ Israelfoɔ dii Midianfoɔ so nkonim a wantumi ansɔre bio. Gideon nna a ɛtwa toɔ bɛyɛ mfeɛ aduanan mu no, na asomdwoeɛ wɔ asase no so.
29 Te daengah Joash capa Jerubbaal khaw mael van tih amah im ah kho a sak.
